EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print by Jan Luyken, we are transported back to the year 1710, where two men can be seen indulging in food and drink. However, little do they know that Satan himself is lurking behind the globe, silently observing their every move. The composition of this artwork is captivating as it juxtaposes the earthly pleasures of eating and drinking with a celestial backdrop represented by the globe. The contrast between these two realms creates a sense of tension and intrigue within the viewer. As we gaze at this image, we cannot help but wonder about the intentions of Satan. Is he merely an observer or does he have ulterior motives? Perhaps his presence serves as a reminder that even in moments of enjoyment, there may be unseen forces watching over us. Jan Luyken's attention to detail shines through in every aspect of this print. From the expressions on the men's faces to the intricate depiction of Satan behind them, each element adds depth and complexity to the narrative being portrayed. Overall, "Two men enjoy food and drink while Satan is watching from behind the globe" invites us to reflect on our own actions and choices amidst both visible and invisible influences. It serves as a timeless reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that caution should always accompany pleasure.
